Platform Potato Curry(Batata Rassa)| StepWise .. and a few more awards….

This is one of the most hit recipes made by Mom. I have mentioned earlier also in my posts that she is an excellent cook and a very fast cook too. She can cook for a big batch of people in a very short interval of time - an art I am yet to expertise! In my childhood, my father would get guests unannounced for lunch or dinner and she inspite of all her illness would feed people gladly and very efficiently. Who ever has visited us has always praised my Mom’s cooking skills.

This is a very simple curry which can be made in a matter of minutes. It's been a favorite dish amongst all of us in my Mom’s family. Then when I got married and 'S' tasted it at my mom’s place he liked it too! His verdict was that it tastes like the subzi served on the platform and ever since then we all call it the "platform curry". Whenever my brother visits my Mom, he has to have this 'Rassa'. In Marathi a gravy dish is called 'Rassa'.

Simplest preparations are the most trickiest is what I believe. It had taken me few years to make it exactly like my mother and now it's has become a favorite in my family too. I make it whenever there are unexpected guests or when there are no veggies in the fridge or when I am in a hurry or when I do not find any other reason! LOL.. yes, it’s made quite a few times..It tastes best when served with Poori /Jeera Rice/Chapati.
